Nuraghe San Pietro, Bronze Age nuraghe in Torpè, Italy.

The structure consists of a central tower with four connected defensive towers and a courtyard containing a deep stone well at its center.

Construction began in the Middle Bronze Age with a central tower, and additional towers were added during subsequent phases until the Final Bronze Age.

Archaeological excavations revealed multiple layers of inhabitation from the Bronze Age through Roman times, showing continuous settlement patterns in ancient Sardinia.

The site opens daily from 9:30 to 13:00 and 15:00 to 18:30, with guided tours provided by the Sardus Pater cultural association of Torpè.

The southeastern tower features an extended corridor and elevated chamber with dual niches, differing from the architectural layout of other towers.

Location: Torpè

Part of: Bronze Age, Nuragic civilization
